NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

1. Basis of Presentation

     In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited financial statements of Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with the interim reporting requirements of Form 10-QSB, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. However, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements.

     In management’s opinion, all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004, are not necessarily indicative of results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2004. For additional information, refer to the Company’s financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended December 31, 2003, contained in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

     Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2. Liquidity and Capital Resources

     The accompanying financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction of liabilities in the ordinary course of business. For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company incurred a loss of $244,591. As of June 30, 2004, the Company had an accumulated deficit of $14,584,207. These matters raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern. The Company does not believe that its existing sources of liquidity and anticipated revenue will be adequate to satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and other cash requirements through December 31, 2004, to continue as a public reporting company without raising additional capital or consummating a business combination (see below). For the six months ended June 30, 2004, the Company had no employees and did not conduct any research or development. The Company’s future capital requirements will be dependent upon many factors, including, but not limited to, costs associated with the continued support of licenses on the Company’s proprietary polymer materials, costs associated with the enforcement of the Company’s patents, and costs associated with the administration of the Company. Although possible, it is unlikely that the Company will be able to generate positive cash flow and show a profit through December 31, 2004.

     On March 22, 2004, the Company and Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy Free”) announced that on March 18, 2004, they had entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”). As subsequently amended, the Agreement provides for the Company to acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities of Allergy Free for which the Company will provide the following consideration: a subordinated convertible note in the approximate principal amount of $274,300 bearing interest at 5.5% per annum and due and payable within three (3) years and approximately 82,732,970 shares of common stock of the Company. Additionally, the Company will assume approximately $611,000 of Allergy Free’s liabilities as of March 31, 2004 (plus, all obligations arising under assumed contracts which arise after the closing). As a result, after the closing of the Agreement and the conversion of the notes and related interest payable, the members of Allergy Free will own approximately 92.7% of the voting shares of the Company. Since the members of Allergy Free will receive the majority of the voting shares of the

FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

Company, the current president of Allergy Free will become president of the Company and since representatives of Allergy Free will hold three of the five seats on the Company’s Board of Directors, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Allergy Free will be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company will be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer). Investors are encouraged to review, when available, the Company’s Proxy Statement, which will be available through EDGAR at www.sec.gov.

3. Earnings (Loss) Per Share

     Earnings (loss) per share is computed using the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding and is presented for basic and diluted earnings (loss) per share. Basic earnings (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding for the period. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period increased to include, if dilutive, the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potential common shares had been issued. Dilutive potential common shares consist of the incremental common shares issuable upon conversion of the convertible preferred stock (using the “if converted” method) and exercise of stock options and warrants (using the treasury stock method) for all periods.

     The Company has excluded all convertible preferred stock and outstanding stock options and warrants from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, because all such securities are either anti-dilutive for those periods or their impact was insignificant. Accordingly, diluted loss per share equals basic loss per share. The total number of potential common shares excluded from the calculation of diluted loss per share for the six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003 were as follows:

                 
    2004
  2003
Warrants
    100,000       255,000  
Options
    104,500       1,159,941  
 
   
 
     
 
 
Total
    204,500       1,414,941  
 
   
 
     
 
 

4. Income Taxes

     As the ultimate realization of the potential benefits of the Company’s net operating loss carryforwards is considered unlikely by management, the Company has offset the deferred tax assets attributable to those potential benefits through valuation allowances and, accordingly, the Company did not recognize any benefit for income taxes in the accompanying condensed statements of operations to offset its pre-tax losses.

5. Stock-Based Compensation

Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc.

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED
FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

     As explained in Note 10 in the Form 10-KSB, the Company accounts for stock options granted to employees based on their intrinsic values under the recognition and measurement principles of APB Opinion No. 25, “Accounting for Stock Issued to Employees, and Related Interpretations,” and has adopted the disclosure-only provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 123, “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation,” and the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148 “Accounting for Stock-Based Compensation – Transition and Disclosure-an Amendment of FASB Statement No. 123.” Since the exercise price of all of the options granted by the Company to its employees has been equal to or greater than fair value, the Company has not recognized any earned or unearned compensation costs in its financial statements in connection with those options. The Company’s historical net income (loss) per share and pro forma net income (loss) per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2004 and 2003, assuming compensation cost had been determined based on the fair value of all options at the respective dates of grant determined using a pricing model consistent with the provisions of SFAS 123 are set forth below:

     During the period ended June 30, 2004, the obligations of Ryer Enterprises, LLC under the May 1, 2003 Agreement with the Company were assigned, with the Company’s approval, to Ryer, Inc., a California corporation (“Assignment”). As part of the Assignment, Ryer, Inc. paid the April and May 2004 installments to the Company on behalf of Ryer Enterprises, LLC. In addition, on June 23, 2004, the Company received a payment from Ryer, Inc. of approximately $161,000 to satisfy the remaining balance of the note.

PART 1 – FINANCIAL INFORMATION

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc.

Except for the historical information contained herein, the discussion in this report contains forward-looking statements that involve certain risks and uncertainties. The Company’s actual results could differ materially from those discussed in this report. Factors that could cause or contribute to such differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and in the Company’s Form 10-KSB for the fiscal year ended December 31, 2003.

OVERVIEW

     Since Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc. (“Planet” or the “Company”) was founded in 1991 substantially all of the Company’s resources have been devoted to the development and commercialization of its technologies and products. This has included the expenditure of funds to develop the Company’s corporate infrastructure and support the Company’s research and development of products, marketing, licensing of products to third parties and corporate administration. For the six month period ended June 30, 2004, the Company did not engage in any research and development and did not incur any employee expense.

     Planet had an accumulated deficit as of June 30, 2004, of approximately $14.6 million. The Company’s only anticipated source of revenues is from royalties from BASF, Alltech and Ryer, Inc., which are not expected to be sufficient to result in a net profit through December 31, 2004.

RESULT OF OPERATIONS

     The net loss for the six months ended June 30, 2004, was $244,591 compared to a net income of $181,202 for the six month period ended June 30, 2003. This decrease is a result of a decline in revenues and the Company incurring higher legal expenses and costs for the six months ended June 30, 2004, due to the pending acquisition agreement with Allergy Free, LLC. The Company had no revenues for the six months ended June 30, 2004 compared to $10,720 for the same period in 2003.

     Effective January 15, 2004, Agway entered into an agreement to sell all of the assets of its FreshSeal® business, which include the fruit/produce patent rights assigned by the Company, to BASF. Also, in January 2004, Agway sold all of its right and interest to Optigen® to Alltech. Management cannot assure that the Company will receive significant, if any, royalties and monies under these Sale and Licensing Agreements. The Company is hopeful BASF and Alltech will continue to commercialize the intellectual property and provide future royalty revenue streams to the Company.

     In April 2003, the Company recovered the assets sold to Ryer Industries, LLC, and by agreement dated as of May 1, 2003, resold the assets to Ryer Enterprises, LLC (“Ryer Enterprises”). Pursuant to said agreement, the Company licensed to Ryer Enterprises, the patent rights relating to the AQUAMIM® products for royalties which are payable monthly forty-five days after the close of each month for 8 years after which Planet has agreed to transfer the patents to Ryer Enterprises, provided it is not in default. In June 2004, with the approval of the Company, the obligations of Ryer Enterprises under the May 1, 2003 agreement with the Company were assigned to and assumed by Ryer, Inc., a California corporation (“Assignment”). On June 23, 2004, as a result of the Assignment, the Company received a payment from Ryer, Inc. of approximately $161,000 to satisfy the note relating to the AQUAMIM® products and the Agreement. Concurrently, the Company entered into a Royalty Contract with Ryer, Inc. redefining on

Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations

Planet Polymer Technologies, Inc.

what sales and how royalty payments are to be made and pursuant to which the Company assigned all patent rights related to AQUAMIM® technology to Ryer, Inc.

     Cost of revenues increased to $2,781 for the three months ended June 30, 2004, from $1,221 for the same period in 2003 due primarily to amortization of intangible assets.

     Total operating expenses increased to $312,750 for the six months ended June 30, 2004, from $272,626 for the same period in 2003. This increase was primarily attributable to higher legal expenses and costs incurred in the six months ended June 30, 2004, due to the pending acquisition agreement with Allergy Free, LLC.

     Similar to the second quarter of 2003, the Company incurred no research and development expenses. Unless and until the Proposed Acquisition is completed, the Company anticipates limited or no further research and development activities on new products.

     Other income, net decreased from approximately $287,488 for the six months ended June 30, 2003, to $10,715 for the same period in 2004. This decrease reflects a one time gain on sale of fixed assets and certain license revenue from Agway in 2003.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

     The Company had net cash used in operating activities of $53,735 for the six months ended June 30, 2004. This negative cash flow was due primarily to increased accounting and legal expenses resulting from the proposed asset purchase agreement between Allergy Free, LLC and the Company.

     The Company does not believe that its existing sources of liquidity and anticipated revenue will be adequate to satisfy the Company’s projected working capital and other cash requirements through September 2004 to continue operations as a public reporting company without raising additional capital or consummating a business merger (see below).

     On March 22, 2004, the Company and Allergy Free, LLC (“Allergy Free”) announced that on March 18, 2004, they had entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (“Agreement”). As subsequently amended, the Agreement provides for the Company to acquire certain assets and assume certain liabilities of Allergy Free for which the Company will provide the following consideration: a subordinated convertible note in the approximate principal amount of $274,300 bearing interest at 5.5% per annum and due and payable within three (3) years and approximately 82,732,970 shares of common stock of the Company. Additionally, the Company will assume approximately $611,000 of Allergy Free’s liabilities as of March 31, 2004 (plus, all obligations arising under assumed contracts which arise after the closing). As a result, after the closing of the Agreement and the conversion of the notes and related interest payable, the members of Allergy Free will own approximately 92.7% of the voting shares of the Company. Since the members of Allergy Free will receive the majority of the voting shares of the Company, the current president of Allergy Free will become president of the Company and since representatives of Allergy Free will hold three of the five seats on the Company’s Board of Directors, the merger will be accounted for as a reverse acquisition whereby Allergy Free will be the accounting acquirer (legal acquiree) and the Company will be the accounting acquiree (legal acquirer).

EX-10.1 2 a01179exv10w1.txt EXHIBIT 10.1 EXHIBIT 10.1 ROYALTY CONTRACT This contract ("Agreement") is made by and between PLANET POLYMER TECHNOLOGIES, INC., a California corporation ("Planet"), and RYER, INC., a California corporation ("Ryer") and is effective forthwith upon the execution hereof by the parties. RECITALS WHEREAS, A. Ryer has contracted to acquire all of the assets of RYER ENTERPRISES LLC, a Nevada limited liability company ("Ryer Enterprises"), and in connection therewith has agreed to accept an assignment of the rights and assumption of the duties of Ryer Enterprises under a certain Purchase, Sale and License Agreement with Planet, dated May 1, 2003 as amended pursuant to a First Amendment dated January 31, 2004 ("Purchase Agreement"), including but not limited to a Secured Promissory Note and Security Agreement executed concurrent therewith. B. PLANET is willing to accept Ryer as assignee of such Purchase Agreement and Ryer agrees to assume and discharge all of the obligations thereunder upon all of the following terms and conditions. WHEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual terms and conditions herein set forth, the parties agree as follows: 1. Warranties of Planet. Planet warrants as follows: 1.1. Planet is a corporation duly formed, existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and duly authorized by its board of directors to enter into and perform this Agreement and this Agreement is effective against and binding upon Planet. 1.2. All of the obligations of Planet and to the best of Planet's knowledge all of the obligations of Ryer Enterprises under the Purchase Agreement, including the Secured Promissory Note and Security Agreement, have been fully performed to date and there are no claims asserted by either party against the other for any breach of said agreement and there are no unperformed obligations of either party thereunder. 1.3. Planet is the owner of the intellectual rights, subject only to the exclusive license of Ryer Enterprises under the Purchase Agreement, which are set forth in Exhibit B to the Purchase Agreement. 1 1.4. Except as set forth in the Purchase Agreement, Planet has not assigned any of the intellectual rights to a third party. 1.5. All of Planet's representations and warranties set forth in paragraph 7 and its subparts of the Purchase Agreement are true and correct as of the date they were made. 2. Warranties of Ryer. Ryer warrants as follows: 2.1. Ryer is a corporation duly formed, existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California and duly authorized by its board of directors to enter into and perform this Agreement and this Agreement is effective against and binding upon Ryer. 2.2. Ryer has full power and authority, together with all licenses, permits and certificates from public authorities as are necessary to own its properties and to conduct its business where the same is now located and being conducted, and has full power and authority to accomplish the transactions contemplated hereby and carry out the provisions hereof. 2.3. No broker or finder has been retained by Ryer in connection with this transaction. 2.4. As of the date hereof Ryer has unincumbered cash assets of approximately $400,000 and its financial condition is reasonably adequate to perform its obligations contemplated by this Agreement. Ryer shall have a net worth of not less than $400,000 at the closing. 3. Final Payment under Purchase Agreement. The parties agree that Ryer shall pay to Planet and Planet shall accept from Ryer the cash sum of $161,000 as and for full satisfaction of all of the monetary obligations of the buyer under the Purchase Agreement, Secured Promissory Note and Security Agreement, other than the obligation to pay royalties as provided in paragraph 4, below. Such payment shall be made as follows: 3.1. The transaction whereby Ryer is acquiring the assets of Ryer Enterprises is being handled through a Bulk Sale Escrow to be opened with New Century Title Escrow. The escrow holder shall be instructed to furnish Planet, through its attorney, a copy of the Bulk Sale Notice and Ryer shall submit a demand for $161,000 together with the following: 3.1.1. Duly executed releases in recordable form of all liens and encumbrances against any and all of the assets subject to the Purchase Agreement; 3.1.2. Duly executed assignments in recordable form of all of the Aquamim technology, patent and other intellectual rights listed on Exhibit B of the Purchase Agreement, assigning all of such rights to Ryer. All of Planet's obligations to maintain or defend the patents shall be terminated at that time. 3.1.3. An instruction that the escrow holder shall deliver such documents to 2 Ryer only when it holds for Planet's account the sum of $161,000 in unencumbered cash. 4. Royalties payable from Ryer to Planet. All provisions as they relate to royalties in the Purchase Agreement shall be deemed null and void upon the execution hereof and the payment by Ryer of $161,000 cash to Planet, through escrow as described in 3.1 of this Agreement. Such provisions shall be replaced with the following provisions relating to the determination and payment of royalties. 4.1. Royalties. During the 8-year term commencing June 1,2004 and ending May 31, 2012 (the "Term"), Ryer shall pay to Planet royalties ("Royalties") on feedstocks or sintered products manufactured and sold to third parties using the Aquamim water debind method or solvent debind Tungsten-Carbide technology (the "Products"). During the term, Royalties shall be payable on or before the 15th day of each month for Products sold by Ryer and for which Ryer received the purchase price (in whole or in part) from the third party buyer during the preceding calendar month. The obligation for the payment of Royalties shall terminate at the expiration of the Term, provided that payment shall be made on all pending orders from customers actually received by Ryer during the term. In the event that Ryer extends credit to a customer for a period longer than 45 days from the date of invoice, the royalty shall be due and payable on the entire invoice as if the purchase price was received 45 days after the date of invoice. 4.2. Computation of Royalties. Royalties payable hereunder shall be computed as follows: 4.2.1. The Royalties on any Water De-bound Feedstock or Solvent De-bound Feedstock sold to a third party shall be computed by multiplying the total purchase price received by Ryer for the feedstock (excluding taxes, shipping, handling and similar charges not related to the actual manufactured price of the feedstock) by 6% (.06). The price of feedstock sold to Micromold, Inc., or any other affiliate of Ryer, shall be fair and not less than the price offered to unaffiliated third parties for like feedstock in like quantities. 4.2.2. The royalty on any Water De-bound Feedstock or Solvent De-bound Tungsten-Carbide Feedstock manufactured into a finished product and sold to a third party shall be computed by dividing the sintered shipped weight (as that term is defined in Section 4.2.2.1 of this Agreement) by 94% (.94) and then multiplying that sum by the lowest feedstock sales price offered to unaffiliated third parties for similar quantities and then multiplying that sum by 6% (.06), as follows: (Shipped Weight / .94) x Lowest Published Price x .06 =Royalty Payable 4.2.2.1. "Shipped weight" as used in this Agreement shall mean the weight of the actual product less packaging materials, pallets, bags, cans and/or similar materials used to package, transport or protect shipped products ("Shipped Weight"). 3 4.2.3. The Shipped Weight of any sintered Products shall be documented by the weighing of the Products and recordation on the invoice to the buyer by line item. This weight shall be used for the calculation set forth in Section 4.2.2 of this Agreement. 4.2.4. Royalties payable by Ryer to Planet under Section 4.1 of this Agreement shall be based on Products sold, delivered, invoiced and paid for during the Term. Copies of the Invoices together with an accounting of outstanding invoices (whether or not paid), orders received for Product and in process and the payments received from the third party buyers thereon shall accompany each monthly payment of royalties. 4.2.5. Planet shall have the right to conduct a compliance audit at any time during the Term up to 60 days following its expiration. The records will be stored at Micromold, Inc., 2100 Iowa Avenue, Riverside, California 92507 (909) 684-7130 (or at such other place as may be designated in writing by Ryer) and written notice of audit shall be directed to Ryer's CFO (presently Brenda Michelsen) at least five work days in advance of the audit. 4.2.6. Royalties will be payable only on Products sold, delivered and paid for by the buyer. No Royalties shall be paid or payable on account of scrap, testing, samples, inventory shrink or loss of Product, or for Product sold but not paid for in whole or in part. The Royalty shall become payable only upon receipt by Ryer of the purchase price therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, where the customer is Micromold, Inc., the right to payment of the Royalty will accrue to Planet upon invoicing, whether or not payment has been made thereon, provided, however, that no royalty shall be payable on account of Ryer's reprocessing of green runners into pellets for Micromold, Inc. 5. Confidential Information. Both parties shall maintain in confidence all proprietary information received or disclosed to the other in connection with this Agreement. Neither party shall disclose any proprietary information for its own use or for any other persons' benefit other than as is expressly permitted by this Agreement without the prior written consent of the owner of the proprietary information. Both parties shall abide by the reasonable confidentiality restrictions imposed by the other party from time to time for proprietary information. 6. General provisions. 6.1. Jurisdiction. Each party consents to the exclusive jurisdiction of the state and federal courts sitting in either San Diego or Riverside County, California in any action or claim arising out of or under this Agreement or the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Each party further agrees that personal jurisdiction over it may be effected by service of process by registered or certified mail addressed as provided in section 6.2 of this Agreement, and that when so made shall be as if served upon it personally within the State of California. 6.2.
